Western Branch: June 2008
This award is offered annually by members of the Institute of Paper, Printing & Publishing, in conjunction with the College, and Bristol News and Media, by joint sponsorship. It is a competitive award for excellence in studies and in particular for the interpretation of design briefs capable of being taken forward for large scale print production. This session's project focussed on three book jackets.

The sculpted and engraved wood trophy, the work of a former member of college staff, was handed over by Stanley's widow, Mrs Catherine Hooper (pictured above) along with a certificate and cheque.

Gary Burt, studio manager at Bristol News and Media; and Bernard Seward, Institute trustee to the award, introduced the proceedings with an outline of the contribution made by Stan Hooper to the Institute, the Evening Post and the former Brunel College.
